Writing

Every writer has strengths and weaknesses that make their writing uniquely their own. The strengths are points of pride, the weaknesses are constantly worked on to slowly strengthen and reinforce them to make the writing even better. I believe that my greatest strengths as a writer are my ability to follow through with my thesis and organize my writing in a logical way that improves readability; my biggest weaknesses as a writer are proofreading and planning in advance. As with most things, my…

As the use of technology increased, a useful skill was taken off the lesson plans in schools across the United States: cursive writing.

to read children’s books to chapter books, as well as learning to write on my own. Following that I moved on to middle school writing plenty of essays advancing in my literary career. Now, as I move onto high school, I’m creating more essays than I ever have before, and I would call it one of the major points in my literary career. Throughout my career, reading and writing haves always seemed like a chore to me, and it doesn’t seem like my view on that is going to change anytime soon. First,…

semester at Community College of Aurora, I had done no long writing whatsoever in those few years. I had forgotten everything.

I did not actually need to go to the restroom I just did not want to participate in the writing assignment given to me at the time. Yes I know it was kind of silly because when I came back I would still have to do the…
